Testing brain training for people with cochlear implants
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study focuses on people who already use cochlear implants and tests a way to improve how the brain processes sound timing. If you’re an adult cochlear implant user, you may be able to join and help researchers understand what works best for hearing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must already use a cochlear implant.
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You can’t be under 18 years old to join.

This trial studies whether a structured auditory (hearing) and cognitive (thinking) training program can improve outcomes for adults who use cochlear implants. It’s designed for people at a certain stage after their implant and with specific hearing and thinking test results.
This study looks at how the brain processes the timing of sounds and speech in people with cochlear implants and in people with typical hearing. It may help researchers understand what changes with age and how implant hearing works in the real world.
This study tests a personalized way to program your cochlear implant sound processor based on your unique ear anatomy. It's for adults who have recently received a MED-EL implant and haven't turned it on yet.
This study tests whether practicing listening exercises on a computer can help adults who just got a cochlear implant understand speech better and feel more satisfied with their hearing. If you are getting a cochlear implant at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, you might be able to join.
This study looks at whether keeping some natural (residual) hearing in the implant ear can improve outcomes with a cochlear implant. If you fit their hearing and implant-device requirements, they’ll measure your hearing before and after implantation to see how well you can use that remaining hearing.
This study looks at how well sound signals are processed in people who use cochlear implants or auditory brainstem implants. Researchers may learn more about hearing and how the devices work, using lab-based listening tasks and brain/signal measurements.
